I have worked with Vanessa Hunt in her capacity as a CRM Consultant and benefited from her help and knowledge of various systems, before using her expertise in Salesforce in particular. I had been asked by a client to migrate their existing CRM system to Salesforce. This required a large data transfer, which wasn't straightforward, given the way data was stored in the legacy CRM. To complicate matters, it was also necessary to transfer significant data from other sources, like Excel.

The project was quite an undertaking, not least because my own IT skills and those of my client were mediocre at best. I also confess to having felt intimidated about even starting on Salesforce, and I procrastinated for a time until I met Vanessa.

Vanessa trained me and the client on how to use Salesforce and we agreed various modifications, which she implemented. During this period, there was some indecision and occasionally conflicting requests from the client. This meant Vanessa had to do, undo and then re-do work, which would have strained the patience of the most reasonable person. Vanessa managed this in a totally pleasant, gently assertive and efficient way. I have rarely seen such a professional response to what must have been a frustrating situation.

In addition, Vanessa also loaded large volumes of data into Salesforce for us, after providing guidance on how to transform the data into an appropriate structure.

I'm pleased to say we now have a Salesforce system to be proud of. It contains all the relevant data we need, and we're now able to use Salesforce to the greatest effect. I believe this will be a key part of my client's future business success.

Salesforce, by its nature, will always be a work in progress and will require regular modifications to reflect the dynamics of a changing world. We very much look to Vanessa to provide the ongoing help and support that will enable us to get the maximum value from the system.

My work is in the Wellbeing sector. I am a Clinical Nutritionist and retired Registered Nurse - definitely not equipped to effectively launch a business! I am so glad that I found Vanessa. Due to her clear way of explaining things, even I, the most non-techie person ever, was able to understand what I had to do. I wanted my website to work better for me and needed advice on other ways to make me 'visible'.

On a one-to-one basis, Vanessa guided me through the Social Media applications that would be the most effective for my business. I am now using these more deftly and I am delighted to say, that the daily hits on my website have increased by one hundred plus in just a month! She also gave me sound advice on how to look for, and approach potential clients.

Vanessa set me tasks to perform which for me, was the best way to retain the know-how. She was encouraging and offered advice as I proceeded - always available to answer my panicky emails! Vanessa is so easy to work with, being both friendly and professional.

Choose Vanessa. You won't regret it!

I worked with Vanessa on a number of client sites where she delivered CAFM training in French, German and Italian. A core strength is not only her ability to quickly learn new systems, but also teach and relate information effectively to people with a wide variety of skills and aptitudes. Always professional, very approachable and highly knowledgeable of cloud technology and business, I would have no hesitation in recommending Vanessa.
